URUGUAY
Uruguay is the second-smallest country in South America, wedged between Argentina and Brazil. The country is known for its colonial-era historic districts in Colonia and Montevideo, popular beaches on the Atlantic Coast, and beef production - a former meat processing plant in Fray Bentos is a world heritage site. Uruguay is calmer and safer than its neighbours, and is a low-key, easygoing destination.
